Don't think I saw a thread on here for Loreena Mckennitt. She's currrently my favorite Celtic artist although some of her later albums feature Middle Eastern influences as well. Her music really takes you to another world. What a voice...

I have some of her albums Rika, but haven't played them enough to get a true feel for her yet, but you are spot on she has a great voice.:D

O, My! what beautiful music.

What would you recommend as the best album to get?

The Book of Secrets is my personal favorite.
The Visit and The Mask and Mirror are also great.
To be quite honest though, I own all her albums for maybe half of the tracks on each. Not that her other songs aren't worth it but they take me a few times listening to them to truly appreciate them.
But those three definitely contain a few obvious masterpieces.

I'm pretty sure I have all of those Rika, I'll have to look to make sure, my little gray cells are not as sharp as they used to be...;)

no contest: she is the best celtic folksinger, better than Enya for exemple, but it's not exactly the same reference
